It's not about the price... It's about the quality. I am pretty sure that here are some guys who will give their left kidney to get some expired domain with quality metrics...

Well unfortunately most people don't know good metrics when they see them. There is a rash of people out there chasing PR2 domains and be gleeful about it handing over $60 because the domain has a DA of 25+!, lol. Not to mention the ripoffs because its got huffington post link!, or some other such nonsense.

One should be very wary of purchasing any domain with a DA above 25 and a PR below 4. If the DA is that high its either because it is an example of how DA fails and overvalues spammy, low quality links or the site somehow got superpoular between now and the last PR update which would leave to wonder why it expired in the first place.

Also having a single link buried deep in the backwaters of some authority site is of little no value, certainly not what many brokers are trying to sell them for.

it's really not that simple....

PR and DA aren't really the main thing to look for, if the backlinks are good then it's worth it, even if it has a PR of 2 and DA 25+, I don't think there are any simple rules.
